ORDER

Date : 27.01.2026 Case taken up before the Lawazima Court.

None appears on behalf of the petitioner.

Perused the records.

Perusal of the instant case record reveals that notice was issued to the respondent No.

5 by way of dasti mode on 04.11.2025.

Now, in regard to the above mentioned dasti notice, it appears that the petitioner has filed an affidavit (at Flag-‘C’ in the Part-I file), wherein, the petitioner has inter alia stated that:–

“............ on 13.11.2025 while the notice dated 04.11.2025 along-with copy of the writ petition which was provided by the Registry of this Hon’ble Court was submitted in the office of the District Commissioner, Kamrup(M), Assam for service to the respondent No. 5, initially the said notice was accepted by the office of the Deputy Commissioner, District Kamrup(M), Assam by endorsing office seal in presence of one witness of the petitioner, namely Shri Pinku Kalita but, thereafter, the office of the District Commissioner, Kamrup refused to accept the notice dated 04.11.2025 and accordingly, cancelled the endorsed seal by putting a cross on it and therefore, the notice dated 04.11.2025 duly endorsed by the registry of this Hon’ble Court has not been accepted by the respondent No.

5 ..........”.

In light of the observations made above, it may be discerned that the respondent No. 5 has refused accept the dasti notice.

As such, let the matter be listed before the Hon’ble Court for obtaining necessary orders regarding respondent No. 5. Deputy Registrar (Bench)
